Rare
Under 5% of wildlife watchers report a Rose Sawfly sighting in Bucharest on a given day, based on 5 verified sightings from GBIF citizen-science data. It is the 303rd most-seen of the 361 insects we can rate there. Over three days the chance rises to about 10%, and over a week to about 30%, if each day is a fresh chance.
June to August
In those months about 10% of wildlife watchers report a Rose Sawfly in Bucharest on a given day, against under 5% in September to May, the lowest months.
Between 11 am and 2 pm
Across all the parks we cover, that three-hour window holds the most Rose Sawfly sightings with a recorded time, and about 9 in 10 of them come between 6 am and 6 pm: it is a daytime animal.
8th of 20
Of the 20 cities where we can rate Rose Sawfly sightings, Bucharest ranks 8th at under 5%. The best odds are in Tehran (Iran, about 20%), Barcelona (Spain, about 10%) and Valencia (Spain, about 10%).
Same order: Hymenoptera
The closest relatives of the Rose Sawfly that you can see in Bucharest (order Hymenoptera, Ants, Bees, Wasps, and Sawflies) are Small-Headed Tree Ant (about 20%), European Gate-Keeper Ant (about 20%) and Dolichoderus quadripunctatus (about 10%), with each one's daily chance of a sighting.
GBIF citizen-science records
It is estimated from how often the Rose Sawfly is recorded against all the insects logged in Bucharest (5 verified sightings), calibrated against known sighting rates. Figures are rounded to the nearest 10% because citizen-science data supports honest approximations, not decimals, and months with records from fewer than five people show "—". How it works.
